2024 Spring Dance Camps
Dance Co’s Spring Dance Camps are a perfect way to introduce new and aspiring dancers to different disciplines. For experienced dancers, it’s an excellent opportunity to improve technique and explore artistic potential! Dancers will have the chance to learn a short dance in each discipline they study throughout the week. A keepsake of this performance will be shared with families. Younger dancers will have the opportunity to try a variety of dance styles as well as make new friends through crafts, games, outdoor activities, and story time! With two locations to choose from, there’s no reason not to dance this Spring Break!

During camps, students will be given lunch and snack breaks. Dancers are to bring their own snack/lunch. Preschool, Pre-Primary and Primary dancers are supervised in their classrooms during their breaks. Older students are welcome to bring their own lunch, or they can purchase meals in the surrounding area.
